Four Plex: Difference between revisions

'''Four Plex''' is the 76th level in [[Chip's Challenge 1]]. As expected, the level contains four separate sections, all of which are rather challenging. The variety of puzzles to solve in Four Plex is staggering, and there are several secrets Chip could miss on his first completion. It's also quite a tough puzzle.

Begin as such with R and RDR, follow the open space and open one [[blue wall]] to the [[red key]] above. Now, slide back through the [[teleport]], then move 6D >RLR to access the [[yellow key]] and >LRL to escape from the first room.

Now, Chip is in a little tussle with [[pink ball]]s to the right; free both of them and slide on the [[force floor]]s. The idea of this section is to bring the four [[block]]s down to the [[bomb]]s, although there are a couple snags: There's a [[bug]] that can sometimes get in the way, and Chip will have to go through the ball elevator that gets tougher with each pass. To speed up the process slightly, move each block 2R from gravel 1 before you take the second one RD from gravel 1 and then use the former one. Also, watch the pink balls; they are the only barrier Chip will encounter.

 

In the third section, Chip can simply clone one [[glider]] at a time, but it's rather slow. Touch three green buttons in total before Chip clones and releases two gliders. Off the [[brown button]], step 2L 2U (RU) 4D [chip] 2U 2R, clone and release another two gliders, and from the brown button move 2L 2U RUR (6U R 2U) [chip] D 2L D 4L. Wipe the chips out, go to the "interlude" of [[recessed wall]]s, and take the first three chips as they come. Drop to the bottom of the area, take the first chip below, and then take the remaining chips as shown. In the final area, collect the keys and chips by moving blocks 3 and 1 L, which frees block 2 (the [[wedge]]), and then trade away until Chip gets the [[flippers]], which allow Chip to swim to the exit.
